Yeah, if you have been following this blog for a while, you've probably noticed that it is dead. It has passed on. It has ceased to be. If it wasn't nailed to its perch, it would be pushing up the daisies.

Anyway, here's why.

Numero Uno. It's 2011, and I am on the Facebook. That's actually a much easier way to share photos, hilarious kid stories, and the many profound thoughts I have on an almost hourly basis. It takes me like 10 seconds to update my FB status, even with our ultra slow internet. It used to take me 45 minutes to an hour to write a blog post, especially when Blogger didn't want me sharing pictures.

And in truth, if you look at my blogroll over on the side there, you'll notice that I'm not the only one who's stopped blogging. So I'm not going to feel guilty about it. If you haven't already, friend me on Facebook - I promise I'll make you laugh.

Numero Dos. My friend and I kind of started a business, and it takes up almost all of my time. (In a good way.) A lot of my other hobbies like scrapbooking, writing, *cough*cleaningmyhouse*cough* have taken a backseat. And I am truly okay with that - as weird as it sounds, I think that creating and selling upscale American Girl doll clothes is what I need to be doing at this time in my life.

I actually started learning how to sew the same summer I commenced this blog. Funny how the one has now eclipsed the other - back in 2006, I'd never have guessed.
